Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Management of Hospital Waiting Lists and Insourcing and Outsourcing of Treatment: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Manus Boyle (Fine Gael)

The witnesses are all very welcome. It is good to see them back and good to see the Minister. I will be local, as usual, and concentrate on Letterkenny. Waiting lists seem to be behind the national average and we have the worst cancer care. I acknowledge the hard-working staff in Letterkenny. The Minister has proven that Mullingar and Naas are working very well. What can we do in Letterkenny to get it working the same? If it can be done in these other hospitals, why can it not be done in Letterkenny? Is it a lack of consultants and doctors, or what is the problem?
